Data *now* is important. Don't listen to the people saying to let your son go free roaming. College is expensive, it's no longer a life experience, it's a requirement. Give him guidance, data can get him into any industry and the salary will give him the chance to expand on himself.

Data management specifically is a huge asset, and comes with big bucks.

Finally an honest answer. The quicker one reaches financial independence the more time they can put into enjoying life and doing the things they actually care about.

College isn’t even enough to time to figure out what one wants to do in life anyway. People and their interest change. It’s best to build the wealth early to be able to satisfy those interests.
